Best Modern European Restaurants in Charney Bassett

Wonderful evening with delicious small plates selections and excellent service from Amalie and Louis. This is a fabulous local restaurant that goes above and beyond to be part of the community and deliver great food, service and value, again and again.

We had such a pleasant experience. Food v good value for money, wine list was amazing, and beautiful surroundings, and special call-out for the manager who looked after us so well.

Second afternoon tea here entertaining family from Hungary. The food is amazing. Our guests are always really impressed. Lovely views of the river. Excellent service. Highly recommend.

Broadly I found the food I sampled - two courses (fish starter and meat main) - to be in alignment with the thrust of previous reviews, and to be in very good order. Portions were generous, including the bread given as an adjunct to one's core order. The chosen accompanying wines also went down very well, from a decent list (they only had 1 dessert offering but this was at least a moreish Monbazillac, which subbed for a real dessert pretty well). The service was superb, although perhaps I should qualify this with an expectation that it really should've been, given my visit was on a Monday evening in late February and for a good 3/4 of my time in the restaurant, there were literally no other customers besides me! I do hope this reflected the time of year etc more than the perceived or experienced qualities of the establishment. As far as I could tell, I am confident that was likely the case. Once a few additional punters did arrive - quite late on, possibly post-University commitments in most cases - the atmosphere livened up and it felt a little less isolated! I felt some were likely regulars with their own tables. The ambience as directed by the design and decor though was excellent even when I was alone in the place - I even sent a pic of it to a friend with the caption "this is how I'd like my front room done"! It is very trad, classic, in keeping with the delightful building, with no unpleasant minimalism or stark modern intrusions - that is how I like things anyway - and felt very comfortable.

Great food, just disturbing that they didn’t find my reservation. At times a bit slow specially for the desert but overall a great place with great food
